The Yard: a container hostel in Bangkok's best neighbourhood

The Yard is a community hostel and coliving in Ari, built from shipping containers around a garden. It sits deliberately away from Khao San Road, and over 117,000 guests from 53 countries have stayed, which makes it one of the most heavily used properties in this directory.

What The Yard Does

  • Private rooms and dorm beds. Shared rooms from around 300 US dollars a month.
  • A container-built garden space. The front yard and back yard are the social centres.
  • Stays from days to months. Flexible rather than a fixed minimum.
  • A community-first model. The operator's framing is conscious travellers seeking rest and connection.
  • A second location in Chiang Mai. Recently opened under the same brand.

Why It Makes Sense for Nomads

Ari is consistently ranked Bangkok's best neighbourhood: leafy streets, independent cafes, excellent street food, and a BTS station, without the tourist density of Sukhumvit or Khao San.

Bangkok itself is one of the world's great bases, with cheap and superb food, fast internet, excellent hospitals, and flights everywhere in Asia.

At around 300 dollars a month for a shared room in Ari, this is very cheap for the location. The 811 reviews at 4.7 reflect a well-run, high-volume operation, and the format is a hostel with community rather than a private coliving, so expect turnover and sociability.

Pricing

Shared rooms from around 300 US dollars a month. Private rooms priced separately.

An oasis in Bangkok's best neighbourhood, at hostel prices.
